Hi,

In the following recent diatribe [1] Linus Torvalds shares a number of
rules for properly formatting git commit messages including.
- each commit should start with a short, single-line, <=50 char summary
  followed by an empty line
- every other line should be <=72 chars (excepting non-prose, like
  compiler output)

Should magit add editor support for maintaining these standards in the
log-edit buffer?  The magit-log-edit-mode-hook already exists which
could be used to do this in ones personal configuration.  Has anyone
done this who would be willing to share their setup?

Thanks,
